by Ed Shankman (Author), David O'Neill (Illustrator)
Shankman & O'Neill take children on another journey of imagination with this whimsical visit to the museum. Young Maddie and Liam are so absorbed by the paintings that they are physically drawn into them - stepping into a seascape to visit a tropical island, into a landscape to run through a meadow, into a junglescape to go on safari, and much more! Drawn in by this intriguing fantasy, children will get a taste of the beauty and power of art.Naturally, the book is charged with the same dynamic energy that characterizes the entire S&O collection - a dazzling tapestry of rhythm, rhyme, and color. And who better to bring this one to life than illustrator Dave O'Neill?!
